    Crripes is DTrain a horse, he looked like a DE running those drills, and Wake's Dad has some splainin' to do..

    Crowder "we ask them if they come from the same tribe"?

    Thats a good boy...DAAAMN that mother grabber looks nice...

    LOL, did you see how wide his stance was on the squat with 315 on the bar, bastard went all the way down, and didn't flinch..

    That boy is a big cat man, great body, and he's not 6'2.

    I'll tell you why Iam hyped, he's got the right mentality in the gym, he's got work ethic, and can be pushed..

    Move over Brandon Jacobs, theres a new train in town..The Dtrain.

    Padre, I know that video got you pumped..

    Brandon Jacobs is who came to mind but DTrain is 230, Jacobs 270, DT does look like a large man though who did look like Wake until he turned and showed he has a larger, thicker lower body then Kraken.

    As for the videos, as Crowder said "we call him Tarzan, hopefully he plays like Tarzan (and not Jane, which is the unsaid)".

    Nah, works better for a running back then for a pitcher Sick, you "ride" both a train and a running back to get where you wish to go, a pitcher only goes out to the mound every 5 days.

    It's 3rd and 10, Brady drops, wake is comin off the edge..''RELEASE THE KRACKEN''!!!!!!

    I usually say that to my 7 year old son when he goes #2, he loves it, but seeing that i'am the self appointed director of the nickname dept and taught you everything you know about nicknames {member that time when you called phinjt4675ghdtyi, phinjt5675ghdtyi", lol}.. The ''Kracken'' it shall be, when it comes to Wake.

    I'll second that. Dontrelle just went on the DL for the Reds AAA club. He'd been pitching pretty well though.

    1) Football always takes priority over baseball

    2) Willis is on his 4th team since the marlins, so he deserves no nickname.

    Same hairstyle, same race, but that's about where the similarities end, IMO.

    It'd be great if Daniel Thomas could get us multiple sacks from the tailback position. :shifty:

    It's ok.

    Don't agree.

    Thank you.

    Dontrelle Willis won 18 games in a season, Rookie of the year, and a World Championship.

    Daniel Thomas does any of that, then we can think about it.

    Pete Rose is a gambling, fat mess now.....doesnt mean his past accolades should be thrown out.

    Would be quite an accomplishment for Daniel Thomas to win 18 games or a world series at any point during his career...much less his rookie season

    Other than the fauxhawk, there's no similiarity. You're not alone.

    I'd pass, D Williams has missed 13 games the last two seasons, what good does it do us to sign a guy who misses games?

    Darren Sproiles though, tough as a tank, he is the only player in the NFL to have over 2,000 all purpose yrds for the last 3 seasons, highly productive, does not miss games, me likey.

    Do not see them paying 6 million per yr to a player who rarely plays 16 games Deej, we went through that with Ronnie B so why do it all over again when we can just resign Ronnie Brown for far less jack?

    Sproiles on the other hand, will give you production in every phase of the game, a backfield of Dtrain, Sproiles and Sheets or Brown would make sense for us.

    if williams is askin for that much than sure lets go in a different direction, I like Bradshaw.

    The great thing is we do have money to spend..hehehehe....

    Maybe, I sort of suspect if there is any FA this yr, the blue chippers will be signed quickly (both DW and Bradshaw were tendered btw) and the rest have to sort hunt for a team then sign a budget deal, and fwiw, not a fan of Bradshaw either, learned my lesson from Grove and Smiley, prefer Sproles and his consistency and availability.

    Durability is a talent Deej, just as much as 40 times or what have you.

    Hopefully those squats were towards the end of his workout. Even though he was going ATG, 315x6 isn't that impressive for a 230lb RB. Just being honest.

    He looks athletic as hell though for his size. I legitimately think he will come in and potentially be a top 5-10 RB in this league for many years.

    Granted they ain't twins, but if anyone said they were actual siblings, no one would bat an eye and IMO folks would be saying, "oh yeah I see the family resemblance."
